Answer 1

It is an excellent team, but has some critical potentail flaws you will have to watch.

1. You didn't get Michael Turner. LT is one of the few players you should insure with his backup. Pray LT stays healthy, or go get Turner on the cheap, especially since he dinged his ankle.

2. Torry Holt is only about 70% and is struggling to get up to form. He may not start Week 1.

3. Clinton Portis has tendinitis and hasn't played all preseason. You didn't take Laddell Betts, so you have to hope that Portis is healed from his off season knee and shoulder surgeries. Major risk.

4. Jamal Lewis looked like a fat, slow ex-convict for Buffalo last year, and they had a better O-line. Yes, he's looked good in preseason, but he's not much more than a flex player.

All that said, you have WRs from strong teams, Brady is going to go bananas. The Seattle defense will really bounce back with their offense healthy.

I love Jay Cutler's upside. Williams could easily end up the starter if Foster goes down. Great kicker. Solid TE.

I wouldn't open the trophy case just yet, but if your risk picks pay off, and LT blows up again, you should be final four at the very least.

You got a lot of value with your choices.

Answer 2

Very Solid team, any time you get LT its good news. The Seattle DEF may be a little weak this year, but should get you by. I like the picks of Holt and Winslow, not too sure about Reggie Brown though. But yeah its a solid team. I might suggest trying to work out a trade for a better 2nd running back, but its just a thought.
